Description
Overview:
The Rubber Mount Male/Female 75x40mm with M12 Thread (MPN: VM18) is a cylindrical vibration isolator for mounting engines, pumps, compressors, generators, and workshop machinery. It has a durable black rubber body with a steel M12 male stud on one side and an M12 female thread on the other for versatile fixings. The mount limits transmitted vibration and absorbs shock to protect frames, housings, guards, and ancillaries from fatigue and noise. Key dimensions are 75 mm diameter (2.95 inches) and 40 mm depth/height (1.57 inches), with an M12 x 37 mm stud. A stiffness rating of 403 kg per 4 mm deflection supports medium-to-heavy-duty tasks. It is a practical choice for tradespeople and DIY users looking to improve equipment reliability and service life.
Key Features:
- 75 mm diameter (2.95 inches) and 40 mm height (1.57 inches) for compact yet robust mounting
- M12 x 37 mm male stud with opposing M12 female thread for flexible installation
- Rubber-to-steel construction for effective vibration control and durability
- Stiffness: 403 kg load at 4 mm deflection for stable support under working loads
- Helps reduce transmitted vibration, shock, and noise into frames and panels
- Aids in prolonging bearing, fastener, and panel life by cutting cyclical stress
- Simple to fit with standard spanners; no special tools required
- Suitable for vertical or horizontal mounting orientations
- Useful where space is limited but isolation performance is required
- Supports routine maintenance: removable without damaging fixings
Typical Applications:
Mounting petrol or diesel engines on compact machinery, small generators, air compressors, water pumps, pressure washers, fans, blowers, HVAC units, bench machines, and control boxes. Common on construction and landscaping equipment such as plate compactors, mixers, saws, chippers, and mowers. Also used as a general isolation mount on frames, guards, and instrument enclosures.
